Mystery box
A mystery box is a wrapped present given away as part of a seasonal promotion or other promotion offered by Grey Havens. A mystery box will contain a randomly-determined item (most often, this will be an article of clothing; less often, it will be a trinket; sometimes, it will be a pet or other valuable prize). If given out as a reward during one of the seasonal promotions, this item will be of the color for that seasonal promotion.
Here are example images of a chocolate mystery box, from the September 2012 promotion of the same name.
